Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day
Today, October 15, is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. At 7pm I will be lighting a candle in memory of Devin and the other babies that we have lost.
There is too much grief in this world of babyloss… too many aching holes in our hearts. Not just for us mothers, either… but for everyone who walked beside us. Our families, our best friends, our blog readers. So many wept for us.
I know that nothing will bring Devin back, nothing will somehow make this easier. But I hope by reaching out – talking to coworkers, putting stickers on my car – that people will at least know that there is this world out there they never knew about and probably never really wanted to consider. People are not bad, they just don’t know. They don’t know how common it is. They don’t know how many of us suffer.
I will not grieve silently. My blog, and Devin’s website, are one of the ways that I ensure that his life is never forgotten. It is not much, but it is something.
Today we light a candle. Today we shed a tear. Today we remember.
Thinking about you sweetie. Lighting my candle tonight and will be remembering Devin as well. Lots of love.
Love you guys.
hey girl…I will be lighting a candle tonight for my two babies and of course for Devin. Thinking of you today!
Just stopping by to let you know that I am remembering with you.
I remember, too.
I am lighting a candle for Devin. The same one that I lit when I learned of his passing. *hugs*
